Often in the late to end stages of dementia the mental capabilities of the individual have severely decreased. At this point they may be unaware of repetitive behaviour such as scratching themselves. When this is the case, it is easy for wounds to occur, leaving them open to infection.

Keep Safe Anti-Scratch Mittens can be easily placed over the hands of the individual, limiting the contact of the nails to the body. This may help to stop injuries from happening and keep the person healthy and free from preventable infection.
